| Bioactivity | Flupentixol is an orally active D1/D2 dopamine receptor antagonist and new PI3K inhibitor (PI3Kα IC50=127 nM). Flupentixol shows anti-proliferative activity to cancer cells and induces apoptosis. Flupentixol can also be used in schizophrenia, anxiolytic and depressive research[1][2][3]. |
| Invitro | Flupentixol (2.5-40 μM; 72 h) treatment inhibits the viability of lung cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner[3].Flupentixol (2.5-40 μM; 24 h) induces apoptosis in lung cancer cells[3].Flupentixol (2.5-15 μM; 24 h) inhibits p-AKT and Bcl-2 expression levels[3].
